Donald Trump Hush money trial

[Andrew NDB]

Oh yes, "insurrection." "We came thiiiiiiiiis close to losing our government on January 6th!"

I'm not sure how someone can say that with a straight face and not surrender all of their credibility immediately.

What political opponents? Oh, you mean ordinary members of the public not affiliated with any government or federal position who actually committed crimes they’ve been convicted for. Gotcha.

Yes, those are U.S. citizens, who Biden has proudly “sentenced to more than 840 years in prison” for being political dissidents who merely trespassed a few offices, and even that’s a stretch since the videos show they were let in. Totally not a dictator, right? He’s basically jailing them for the “wrong-think” of questioning a very strange election. As mentioned earlier, the “summer of love” 2020 when leftwing extremists set fire to the capitol, or the numerous violent protests at the capitol during Trump Presidency, is ok when it’s their side doing it. Celebrities bailing them out cause most hollywood celebs are leftists. Trump was too nice to the domestic terrorists during his first term.

I open the door to my house. I don't invite you in. You still enter regardless. You are still trespassing. The people in question still had a choice to go in or not whether the doors were locked or fully open. They weren't forced to enter.

Well, you're not going to find any evidence of me condoning that either mind you. Evidently the police weren't particularly happy either as over 14,000 arrests were made countrywide during said protests. Hardly allowing them to get away with it here.

So... trials over election fraud, worth boosting, and... the new gold Trump shoes possibly?

Yeah it was quite something else. Yeah Biden is struggling too, I have no love for the man and it's obvious we need someone under 60, please, in the White House soon.

I thought the first rule of interviews was don't swear at journalists? Old MTG decided to throw that playbook out, fine upstanding woman there...!

Yeah, I don’t see any journalists.

They’ve been extinct since the Obama age.

[Mayhem]

Well you may think they don’t exist in the US any more (so no journalists either on Fox News huh?) but they certainly do still here. Even more surprising to see it directed at one of our leading investigators and interviewers…

Journalists on Faux Newz? Good one. The closest thing they had to real journalism was the Tucker Carlson show, and they booted him off the network for upsetting the wrong people.

I don't agree with large swaths of what Tucker believes and touts but he's not bad at actual journalisming.

As if any of you youtube-sheep had any idea what actual journalism is.

Years ago I worked as a college Academic Advisor at a (barf) for-profit-College. We had one guy on our team - black guy from Kenya - the kind of guy who perceived two people on Earth - understanding allies or ignorant racists. That's it. That's who populated his world.

I rarely dug in to engage him in his nonsense - we were on-the-job after all. I remember him trying to explain and guide me in the ways of politics and governmental form (I have a Master's Degree in Public Administration, this guy was an accountant, by the way). His training included telling me, in measured beats of calmness - the kind of measured calmness that actually borders on provocation as is typical in office environments - that "NPR was a fair and balanced news source for both sides". NPR.

Not only is this a painfully obvious overpriced “please pay my legal and bond fees” piece of tat, but he had them printed overseas (yay you could have kept the cost money inside the US) AND breaks the Founding Fathers’ wishes to ensure religious freedom for all and maintain separation between Church and state by including the Constitution and Bill of Rights

Don Poorleone trying to make you an offer you can refuse…

Funny how hard Don tries to pretend he loves the Bible to woo supporters, now he's even trying to sell them... for 60 bucks a pop.

The only thing Trump worships is himself.

That's unfair. He also worships money.

Ironically, while you posted this yesterday, it was actually Biden doing the grifting, hosting a $25 million campaign fundraising event in NYC with Lizzo, Stephen Colbert, Barack Obama, and Bill Clinton, charging up to $500,000 for a seat.

Trump was also in NYC yesterday, attending funeral services for a NYC police officer that was murdered by violent career criminals.
